Retraction on New York City Bar Deferred Associate Survey

We blogged earlier about the New York City Bar’s survey of deferred associates in public interest placements. One thing many reports fixed on was a finding that associates rated interactions with colleagues and integration into the workplace at a lower satisfaction level. It turns out that was in error – yesterday the NYC Bar released a retraction of that finding and a revised version of the study showing that deferred associates actually “reported a high degree of satisfaction in their interactions with colleagues.”
